Engineering Lead, Backend - Delight

Posted Oct 26

We’re looking for an Engineering Lead (Manager) to join the Flywheel product family in the Delight group.

The Flywheel mission is to help spin HubSpot’s Go-To-Market Flywheel faster. 

The Delight product group builds products, processes, and insights to support our reps to delight HubSpot’s customers. This is done through leveraging AI to serve customers better at scale and also proactively gain insights to allow reps to focus on the most valuable work.

We’re passionate about solving complex business problems, optimizing the workflows and tooling for our internal reps, and delivering a remarkable experience for our end customers. We work closely with other internal teams to ensure our systems can meet the demands of a business that is scaling rapidly.

We’re looking for an experienced engineering leader who is excited by solving complex, detail-oriented business problems and is passionate about improving the usability, reliability and uptime of the products they own.  

This position can be based in our offices in Dublin or London and we can also support remote working (hybrid or fully remote) from within Ireland or the UK.

As an Engineering Lead on Delight, you will:

  • Manage technical leads and engineers to success while still contributing in a hands-on coding role (we use Java in the backend). 
  • Coach and mentor engineering teams, performing code reviews, higher-level software design, and direct management.
  • Work with product managers and other leaders to define your team’s mission and success metrics
  • Plan work and support numerous frontend teams by building new APIs, applications, experiments and tools
  • Envision, build and analyse new features and tools, each contributing to group and company growth and revenue
  • Continue to write and ship production code that has meaningful user and business impact
  • Collaborate with HubSpotters all over the company, whether in engineering, product, design, research, marketing, sales, etc
  • Get exposure to and learn how HubSpot works as a business

You may be a good fit, if:

  • You’ve worked in a people management role in the past but also enjoy coding and want to be in a hands-on product building role.
  • You’re curious about utilizing AI and the scaling benefits and insights it can bring to your customers.
  • You care deeply about building the best possible product and enjoy interacting with customers to better understand their needs (not just the Product Manager’s job!).
  • You enjoy working in an autonomous environment where experimental rigor, gathering feedback, measuring data, and being decisive on next steps is the preferred way of working vs top down management.
  • You enjoy working in an environment where everyone is given flexibility to work where they do their best work - this might be from one of our offices, mostly from home, or fully remote.

We know the confidence gap and imposter syndrome can get in the way of meeting spectacular candidates, so please don’t hesitate to apply — we’d love to hear from you.

At HubSpot, we value both flexibility and connection. Whether you’re a Remote employee, or work from the Office, we want you to start your journey here by building strong connections with your team and peers. 

If you are joining our Engineering team in a full-time role, you will be required to attend a regional HubSpot office for in-person onboarding. If you join our broader Product team, you’ll also attend other in-person events such as HubSpot’s annual PEER week, your Product Group Summit, and other in-person gatherings to continue building on those connections.

If you require an accommodation due to travel limitations or other reasons, please inform your recruiter during the hiring process. We are committed to supporting candidates who may need alternative arrangements.
